But also, he's hunting down deadly criminals. And he doesn't have the option to kill them, he has to bring them in alive to get the bounty. And lets not forget that all of this is to pay for some procedure to save his life. And some of the live ammo seems to even enjoy helping stranger. He fires off a fuzzle and it patiently waits and attacks for him. Besides which, it's just a game.
It's fine if the critters want to help him, I have no problem with that. A good point about the procedure but he is still sacrificing innocents to save his own life whereas Abe and Munch were sacrificing sadistic murderers to save their respective races. And there is no evidence that Stranger has to use Live Ammo, he could use the same ammo as the outlaws. And it's not just a game, games are a reflection of the real world and they can send powerful messages to people, I'm not saying that this game will make people abuse animals or something but immorality in any form tends to breed immorality whether on a large or small scale.
